Chapter Forty-Eight: Golden Scales

an barely lift them." Tang Wulin had been extra hungry lately, and after school he'd put in a lot of strenuous labor. It was no surprise he was craving food at this moment.Natalie blinked and said, "T...Gu Long's dagger strike landed, but Xie Xie held back his full power. In his view, if he attacked with all his might, he could directly sever Tang Wulin's arm. However, the two of them didn't have any deep grudges, so a lesson would be enough.

But to his surprise, Tang Wulin's shoulder muscles were extremely tough. Even with the sharpness of the Guanglong Dagger, it only pierced an inch deep. While this was a result of him holding back, it was still astonishing.

A flash of blood appeared, and the intense pain caused Tang Wulin, who was in the process of retrieving the Blue Silver Grass, to lose control of it instantly. It fell to the ground.

Guolong's dagger pressed down, Tang Wulin almost knelt. He staggered but still insisted on standing, wanting to punch Xie Xie. Xie Xie suddenly dodged and was already behind him. Guolong's dagger moved slightly on his shoulder, instantly making Tang Wulin's whole body numb with pain. Especially the sharp energy transmitted from Guolong's dagger, which ruthlessly pressured his soul power.

"Do you admit defeat!" Xie Xihe's voice carried a hint of triumph. Finally, he had avenged yesterday's punch.

Tang Wulin gritted his teeth, the stubbornness in his heart refusing to give up.

At that moment, a sudden searing pain in his shoulder erupted like fire through his body. A wave of intense heat surged from deep within him, spreading instantly throughout his entire being. He tried to scream, but found himself unable to utter a sound.

"I ask you, do you admit defeat!" Xie Xie pressed his dagger down, snarling fiercely.

"No!" Tang Wulin almost roared, but his voice was clearly changing.

Xie Xie was stunned. He asked himself, he hadn't stabbed too deep, how could his reaction be so hysterical Instinctively, he wanted to pull out the Light Dragon Dagger.

But just at that moment, something unexpected happened to him.

The light dragon dagger that pierced Tang Wulin's shoulder suddenly let out a rather piercing dragon roar. Xie Xie only felt a sudden wave of fear wash over his entire body, like he had encountered something that terrified him deeply.

Where the Dragonlight dagger plunged, the blood suddenly stopped flowing. A series of golden lights spilled out from that window, and the Dragonlight dagger was slowly pushed out by the surging golden light.

Faced with this unknown situation, Xie Xian's first thought was to retreat. But he was horrified to find that the Guanglong dagger seemed to be stuck, and even if he wanted to withdraw it, he couldn't.

“Aaah!” A roar that shook the heavens erupted from Tang Wulin’s mouth, and the Guanglong Dagger was blasted out of his wound in an instant.

Xie Xie's last view was a golden light, and the next moment, he felt as if he had been hit head-on by a high-speed soul guide train. His vision went black, and he knew nothing more.

"Bang—" Xie Xie collided with a large tree in the distance, sliding down slowly.

Tang Wulin knelt on one knee, his eyes still bloodshot, his whole body trembling violently. At this moment, he felt like metal being burned in a furnace, the intense heat surging from within causing his body to tremble uncontrollably.

But his consciousness was still clear, at least when he threw that punch. At the last moment, he pulled back. Otherwise, he doubted Xie Xihe would have been rendered unable to take care of himself with a single punch.

He lowered his head and was astonished to see that his right hand was covered in fine scales at some point.

That was golden scales. The scales were rhomboid, each one slightly raised, making them appear sharp and angular. The fingertips narrowed and the nails grew long and sharp, like claws.

The Grass Serpent Soul Spirit's golden light that was originally coiled around his wrist now shimmered on his entire body, and he seemed to have grown a full circle in size. His eyes had turned red, like rubies, twinkling with an intense glow.

Is that it Isn't it a vengeful spirit What's going on here

Tang Wulin quickly took off his shirt, and then he was horrified to see that it wasn't just his palm that had changed, his entire right arm, from the spot where the Guanglong Dagger pierced him, all the way to his palm, was covered in golden scales.

This arm, it brought him a power beyond description.

He instinctively swung his right arm wildly, "Boom!"

The right fist slammed into the air, a burst of gold light erupting and faintly taking the shape of a dragon's head. The golden light gushed out a full meter, its powerful aura left him in no doubt that this all-out punch would have devastating effects if it landed on someone.

"Jin Guang, is this the power you gave me" Tang Wulin looked at the grass snake on his wrist in astonishment.

But just at this moment, the grass snake's bloated body gradually contracted. The scales covering its arms and the changes in its palms rapidly receded. Almost in the blink of an eye, everything returned to normal. Immediately following was an indescribable sense of fatigue. Tang Wulin only felt his eyes go dark before he fainted.

He hadn't even had time to get dressed when the golden grid-like patterns reappeared, especially those on his spine which were particularly vivid.

……

Xie Xian woke up in the bumpy carriage, his mind still a little fuzzy, with vague changes in the scenery around him. He instinctively looked up, and saw a familiar face.

When I looked up again, I just happened to see the gate of Tokai University.

It was already dark, the large characters "Tohai Academy" illuminated by lights stood out clearly.

"Hmm... hmm..." Xie Xian wanted to speak, but all that came out were strange sounds.

Tang Wulin frowned slightly and said to Xie Xie, who was being carried on his back: "What's the matter"

"How's it going" Xie Xian's voice was still slurred.

As his consciousness gradually returned, he realized that he was being carried on Tang Wulin's back. He instinctively reached up to touch his face, and what he felt was a swollen, numb, doughy cheek like bread.

Everything that had happened before gradually began to stir up a tide of memories in Xie Xun's mind. At the same time, Xie Xun's mind echoed with the words he and Tang Wulin had said when they left the East Sea Academy.

"Let's go to Donghai Park, there are fewer people there. Don't worry, if I hurt you, I'll find someone to treat you."

Now...
